After the April 9, 1942, U.S. surrender of the Bataan Peninsula on the main Philippine island of Luzon to the Japanese during World War II (1939-45), the approximately 75,000 Filipino and American troops on Bataan were forced to make an arduous 65-mile march to prison camps.

When Bataan fell in April 1942, most of US and Filipino soldiers who surrendered to the Japanese  <u>had to participate in the death march</u>. It was one of the worst war crimes committed during the Second World War by the Japanese army. This march estimated had made between 10,000 and 20,000 dead out of a total of 70,000 to 85,000 prisoners, mostly they were Filipinos.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Since 1941, Japan declared war on the allies and sent their armies to conquer the colonies that they possessed in South East Asia such as Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, and Singapore. In the Philippines, the Americans and the local army managed to resist the invasion for 4 months, but on April 9, 1942, they had to capitulate to the power of Japan.

After this defeat, the Japanese forced all these men to walk day and night for 97 km, to reach the concentration camp that they had built for them. Along the way, they beat and murdered anyone who looked weak or wanted to take a break. This barbarity continued in the concentration camp where many other people died.

The Americans regained control of Japan in 1944, and Japanese military officials who organized the criminal march were tried by a Philippine court and sentenced to death.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

After the war ended, Germany was blamed, despite the fact that it was Austro-Hungary that started the War. The treaty prevented the German government from having an airforce or navy, and severely limited the German Army. Because of this humiliation, this would be used as a pretext for Adolf Hitler.
